Creating a WTB contract for a BPC

I'm looking to buy an Omen Navy Issue BPC. Currently there are none on the market so I'd like to put up a Want to Buy contract for it.

When I do this, the contract is created for an Omen Navy Issue Blueprint (original). I don't think that's an order I'm going to have filled, especially not for 55mil.

I was doubly careful trying to find an option for selecting a BPC instead of an original for the contract, but this doesn't seem possible. Am I missing something?

Don't think its possible to put up wanted contract for blueprint copies.

I managed to get that BPC for 50 mil, so I contracted it to you privately at same price. If that is too much or you dont want it anymore just say so and I'll remove the contract.

Pretty sure you'd need to use the Buy Orders forum for that.

In order to place a WTB contract for blueprints, you'd have to have some way to specify the ME, PE and number of runs on the BP you want to buy. I don't think there's any GUI to do that.

WTB contracts for BPCs can not be filled. You see a lot of them, but these are mainly done by people to try and bring the WTS contract prices down (or perhaps people who think they work).

The only way to buy BPC is by the forums i.e. private contracts or people who have already listed public WTS contracts.
